Panasonic Security Systems Showcases Variety Of Surveillance Solutions

  • Apr 03, 2008

Panasonic Security Systems is showcasing its growing array of video surveillance solutions for every platform at Booth 19105 during ISC West.

"Our objective is to deliver the very best in performance on the network, and everywhere else," said Frank DeFina, president, Panasonic System Solutions Company (PSSA). "This total system solution product development strategy allows us to provide continued support to legacy system customers -- while providing new and more efficient means of migrating to the latest infrastructure technologies like network and wireless."

Panasonic’s comprehensive system solutions for best-in-breed analog, network and hybrid applications are built on the company’s core competencies in video image capture, recording and processing technologies. All of the systems products offered are designed to work together with optimum functionality and efficiency.

Leading the lineup of new products are Panasonic's megapixel cameras, delivering HD quality images plus volumes of video data for advanced analytics. These cameras also incorporate features and capabilities typically available in best-in-breed analog cameras, bringing a new level of performance and application versatility to a networked platform.

The new i-Pro WV-NF302 Ruggedized Megapixel Day/Night Fixed Dome Network Camera features a 1280 x 960 megapixel image sensor with dual streaming capabilities. With a rugged heavy duty metal body, the WV-NF302’s superior image capturing features include Adaptive Black Stretch to enhance dark areas, progressive output to provide clear images of moving objects, Day/Night capabilities for 24-hour surveillance, and focus assist which automatically achieves the best focus. Additional features include automatically adjustable image compression to conserve bandwidth and deliver higher quality images in alarm mode, a built-in network interface and PoE.

Panasonic’s new i-Pro WV-NP304 Megapixel Day/Night Network Camera is a box camera that delivers the same levels of performance and connectivity as the WV-NF302. Several new analog cameras from Panasonic will also be introduced at ISC West.

The new WV-CF324 Ruggedized Day/Night Fixed Dome Camera offers 540 lines of horizontal resolution, simple Day/Night function for 24-hour surveillance, Auto Back Focus to reduce post-installation intervention, and Adaptive Black Stretch to enhance visibility of dark areas without compromising bright areas.

Panasonic's new WV-CW384 Super Dynamic III Weather Proof Day/Night Camera features Panasonic's SDIII technology for exceptional images in virtually any lighting condition. This shielded bullet-style camera offers Auto Back Focus, Day/Night function and 540 lines color horizontal resolution.

The new Panasonic WV-CL930 Series ½" CCD Day/Night Cameras provide Adaptive Digital Noise Reduction, Auto Back Focus and 540 lines color horizontal resolution. Video Motion Detection and Scene Change Detection deliver enhanced functionality.

Also on display at ISC West will be Panasonic's new WJ-GXD400 Multi-Channel High-Definition Video Decoder. Registering up to 256 cameras, this decoder offers a high-speed network interface, browser GUI and embedded real-time operating system for optimum reliability.

The new WJ-ND400 Network Video Recorder from Panasonic provides MPEG-4 and JPEG recording, connection and recording of up to 64 cameras simultaneously, installation of up to 9 hot-plug hard disk drives, Panasonic camera control, flexible playback controls for audio and video, motion detection search, digital zoom and quick IP setup for Panasonic i-Pro cameras, plus much more.

“Our multi-tiered system products strategy supports the migration to a networked platform and keeps the needs of the market first by offering a diverse selection of migration paths to a networked platform,” DeFina said. "Panasonic will continue to apply its core competencies across both analog and networked system platforms and work across industry lines to help the industry achieve true seamless interoperability and enterprise level integration."

Panasonic also will be showing ongoing support for their strategic programming initiatives at this year's ISC West. The Panasonic Solution Developer Network (PSDN) has grown to include close to 65 participants and is continuing to open boundaries between manufacturers to develop interoperable and seamless solutions for the benefit of the end-user. Further, the i-Pro Certified Reseller program (IPCR) is bringing dealers and integrators on board for free training and access to Panasonic's leading line of i-Pro network solutions.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
